The one thing that is striking home for me more and more is how global the Church really is--and how regional bishops will sell out for power within their regions. The Church is done being a global power broker, but in certain regions, it most certainly is a power broker. My prayer is that Pope Francis lets the waning political power die a quick death and mobilizes the laity, the vast majority of us poor, to create a new reality. That would be cool.colkochnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8383701632927065467.post-79604534245865170652013-11-08T14:19:25.604-07:002013-11-08T14:19:25.604-07:00I like the new Feedjit.

I think their best argument is the one of biological complementarity. However, relationships can't be limited to only biological complementairty even for marriage. It seems to me in relationships there are various levels of complementarity. For me there is the emotional - read psychological, and spiritual complementairty. <br /><br />So, it is not like race? The bishops won't admit this, but it is still discrimination. On this issue like the civil rights issue of the 60's these bishops, and their supporting bishops, are once again the tail light; not the headlight. If nothing else, the USSCB is not dancing to the tune of papal piper in Rome.<br /><br />The meeting of the US bishops next week and their election will be interesting. As you point out the agenda is not very hopeful. Give me a break; more Latinized English for some of the sacraments. I am not over the Latinized English for the Mass. I have bad thoughts about former pope bxvi every time I encounter the "new mass". <br /><br /><br /><br />I like how you follow the money.wild hairhttp://www.wildhair95.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
